My definition of design is the idea of forming critical thinking around a broader set of issues or problems for business or society. Ideally, those labors are measured and tested.

Dear reader — I consider myself a problem solver, inventor, multidisciplinarian, gardener and leader. I'm drawn to formulating new ideas around objects, people and motives using thesis building. Then executing a series of experiments against the thesis. I consider this process design. Any goal where design is a factor should be articulated in a fashion that secures executive paths in complex environments and presents that path to customers for economic gain. Accolades — My first startup was acquired by Groupon in 2011. Previous to that was named top five for The Next Web’s “Company to watch” in Chicago, IL.

I began a Company in 2013 where I contributed to the main discoveries and proceeds. Today — New ideas, select consulting arrangements and working with my advisory portfolio take up my time.
Very warm regards —
